Abstract

The main objective of this study is to formulate the optimum exposure factors for German shepherd dog's in conventional radiography using the
weight as a reference. The study was conducted in Police Dogs Administration (Ministry of Interior, X-ray Department), 24 German Shepherds
dogs were put under investigation which (8 males and 16 females). A Poly mobile Siemens X-ray Machine was used. The result of this study
showed that the Kv and the mAs had a direct linear association with body mass in both Ventro-Dorsal extended view (external rotation,(VD2) and
Dorso- Ventral flexed hips and knees (DV) projections of the pelvis in canine radiography.
